< Judges 16 >
1 Now Samson went to Gaza, and there he saw a loose woman and went in to her.
Chiengʼ moro achiel Samson nodhi Gaza, kama nonenoe nyako moro ma jachode mi odhi mondo oterre kode.
2 And it was said to the Gazites, Samson is here. So they went round, watching for him all day at the doorway of the town, but at night they kept quiet, saying, When daylight comes we will put him to death.
Nonyis jo-Gaza niya, “Samson nitiere kae!” Omiyo negilworo kanyo kendo gibuto ka girite otieno duto e dhoranga dala maduongʼ. Ne ok gisudo otienono, kagiwacho niya, “Kochopo kogwen to wabiro nege.”
3 And Samson was there till the middle of the night; then he got up, and took a grip on the doors of the town, pulling them up, together with their two supports and their locks, and put them on his back and took them up to the top of the hill in front of Hebron.
To Samson nonindo kanyo nyaka dier otieno. Eka no-aa malo kendo nomako ranga dalano kaachiel gi sirnine ariyo mopudhogi kod gik moko duto. Notingʼogi e goke mi oterogi ewi got momanyore gi Hebron.
4 Now after this, he was in love with a woman in the valley of Sorek, named Delilah.
Bangʼ mano, nomako osiep hera gi nyako ma nyinge Delila e Holo mar Sorek.
5 And the chiefs of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, Make use of your power over him and see what is the secret of his great strength, and how we may get the better of him, and put bands on him, so that we may make him feeble; and every one of us will give you eleven hundred shekels of silver.
Jotend jo-Filistia nodhi ir Delila mi owachone niya, “Tem ane ka inyalo hoye mondo onyisi kuma tekone ae kendo ingʼe kaka wanyalo loye mondo mi watweye kendo sande. Wabiro miyi fedha ma pekne romo kilo apar gadek ngʼato ka ngʼato.”
6 So Delilah said to Samson, Make clear to me now what is the secret of your great strength, and how you may be put in bands and made feeble.
Omiyo Delila nowachone Samson niya, “Nyisa ane kuma tekoni ae kendo kaka inyalo maki mi tweyi.”
7 And Samson said to her, If seven new bow-cords which have never been made dry are knotted round me, I will become feeble and will be like any other man.
Samson nodwoke niya, “Ka ngʼato otweya gi tonde abiriyo manyien mapok otiyo, to abiro bedo manyap machal gi ngʼato angʼata.”
8 So the chiefs of the Philistines gave her seven new bow-cords which had never been made dry, and she had them tightly knotted round him.
Eka jotelo mag jo-Filistia nokelone Delila tonde abiriyo manyien mapok otiyo, eka notweye gi tondego.
9 Now she had men waiting secretly in the inner room; and she said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. And the cords were broken by him as a twist of thread is broken when touched by a flame. So the secret of his strength did not come to light.
Kane osepando jomoko ei ot kanyo, noluonge kowacho niya, “Samson, jo-Filistia osebiro monji!” To ne ochodo tondego e yo mayot mana kaka tol chot kokete machiegni gi mach. Omiyo kuma tekone ae ne ok ofweny.
10 Then Delilah said to Samson, See, you have been making sport of me with false words; now, say truly how may you be put in bands?
Eka Delila nowachone Samson niya, “Isekawa ngʼama ofuwo; ne iwuonda. Bi mondo koro inyisa kaka inyalo tweyi.”
11 And he said to her, If they only put round me new thick cords which have never been used, then I will become feeble and will be like any other man.
Nowachone niya, “Ka ngʼato otweya moridore gi tonde manyien mapok otiyo, to abiro bedo manyap machal gi ngʼato angʼata.”
12 So Delilah took new thick cords, knotting them tightly round him, and said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. And men were waiting secretly in the inner room. And the cords were broken off his arms like threads.
Omiyo Delila nokawo tonde manyien mi otweyego. Kane osepando jomoko ei ot kanyo, noluonge kowacho niya, “Samson, jo-Filistia osebiro monji!” To nochodo tondego mana ka gima gin usi.
13 Then Delilah said to Samson, Up to now you have made sport of me with false words; now say truly, how may you be put in bands? And he said to her, If you get the seven twists of my hair worked into the cloth you are making and fixed with the pin, I will become feeble and will be like any other man.
Eka Delila nowachone Samson niya, “Nyaka sani, isebedo ka ikawa ka ngʼama ofuwo kendo isewuonda. Nyisa kaka inyalo tweyi.” Nodwoko niya, “Ka ikado yie wiya gi usi mar chwecho kendo miride gi pino, to anabed manyap machal gi ngʼato angʼata.” Omiyo kane onindo Delila nokado yie wiye nyadibiriyo, kotwangʼe matek gi usi mar chwecho
14 So while he was sleeping she got the seven twists of his hair worked into her cloth and fixed with the pin, and said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. Then awaking from his sleep, he got up quickly, pulling up cloth and machine together.
kendo oride motegno gi pino. Noluonge kendo niya, “Samson, jo-Filistia osebiro monji.” Nochiewo oa e nindo mi opudho pino oko kod usi mar chwecho.
15 And she said to him, Why do you say you are my lover when your heart is not mine? Three times you have made sport of me, and have not made clear to me the secret of your great strength.
Bangʼe nowachone niya, “Ere kaka inyalo wacho ni ihera to ok inyal nyisa kuma tekoni ae? Ma koro en mar adek ma iseketa ka ngʼama ofuwo kendo pod ok inyisa kuma tekoni ae.”
16 So day after day she gave him no peace, for ever questioning him till his soul was troubled to death.
Noromo Samson gi wachni pile ka pile manomiyo koro odwaro mana dere.
17 And opening all his heart to her, he said to her, My head has never been touched by a blade, for I have been separate to God from the day of my birth: if my hair is cut off, then my strength will go from me and I will become feeble, and will be like any other man.
Omiyo nohulone gik moko duto kowachone niya, “Onge wembe mosekadho e wiya nikech asebedo ja-Nazir ma Nyasaye nowalo nyaka aa nywolna. Ka yie wiya oliel, to tekra biro rumo, kendo abiro bedo manyap machal gi ngʼato angʼata.”
18 And when Delilah saw that he had let her see into his heart, she sent word to the chiefs of the Philistines saying, Come up this time, for he has let out all his heart to me. Then the chiefs of the Philistines came to her, with the money in their hands.
Ka Delila noneno nine osenyise gik moko duto, nooro wach ne jotend jo-Filistia niya, “Dwoguru dichiel; osenyisa gik moko duto.” Omiyo jotend jo-Filistia noduogo gi chudo e lwetgi.
19 And she made him go to sleep on her knees; and she sent for a man and had his seven twists of hair cut off; and while it was being done he became feeble and his strength went from him.
Delila nohoyo Samson mi nonindo koteno wiye kuome, eka noluongo ngʼato mondo obi oliel yie wiye mane osekad nyadibiriyo. Bangʼ mano tekre norumo.
20 Then she said, The Philistines are on you, Samson. And awaking from his sleep, he said, I will go out as at other times, shaking myself free. But he was not conscious that the Lord had gone from him.
Eka noluonge niya, “Samson, jo-Filistia osebiro mondo omonji!” Kane ochiewo to ne owacho e chunye niya, “Abiro wuok kaka pile mondo abed thuolo.” To ne ok ongʼeyo ni Jehova Nyasaye noseweye.
21 So the Philistines took him and put out his eyes; then they took him down to Gaza, and, chaining him with bands of brass, put him to work crushing grain in the prison-house.
Bangʼe jo-Filistia nomake, mi gilodho wengene oko kendo ne gitere nyaka Gaza. Eka ne gitweye gi nyoroche mag mula, mi gikete jarego e od twech.
22 But the growth of his hair was starting again after it had been cut off.
To bangʼe yie wiye nochako twi mos mos.
23 And the chiefs of the Philistines came together to make a great offering to Dagon their god, and to be glad; for they said, Our god has given into our hands Samson our hater.
Koro jotend jo-Filistia nochokore mondo gitim misango maduongʼ ne Dagon ma nyasachgi, negitimo nyasi kagiwacho niya, “Nyasachwa osechiwo Samson ma jasikwa e lwetwa.”
24 And when the people saw him, they gave praise to their god; for they said, Our god has given into our hands the one who was fighting against us, who made our country waste, and who put great numbers of us to death.
Ka ji nonene, negipako nyasachgi, kagiwacho niya, “Nyasachwa osechiwo jasikwa e lwetwa, ngʼatno mane oketho pinywa mi omiyo onegwa mangʼeny.”
25 Now when their hearts were full of joy, they said, Send for Samson to make sport for us. And they sent for Samson out of the prison-house, and he made sport before them; and they put him between the pillars.
E seche mane gin-gi ilo mathothno, negigoyo koko niya, “Keluru Samson mondo omielnwa.” Omiyo negigolo Samson oko mar od twech, mi omielnegi. Kane oyudo gichunge e kind sirni,
26 And Samson said to the boy who took him by the hand, Let me put my hand on the pillars supporting the house, so that I may put my back against them.
Samson nowachone jatich mane omako lwete niya, “Keta ane kama anyalo muloe sirni mosiro hekaluni, mondo omi ayiengra kuomgi.”
27 Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and about three thousand men and women were on the roof, looking on while Samson made sport.
Koro hekalu nopongʼ gi chwo kod mon; jotend jo-Filistia duto ne ni kanyo, kendo ne nitie chwo gi mon alufu adek mane ni ewi tado ka ngʼiyo Samson kamiel.
28 And Samson, crying out to the Lord, said, O Lord God, do have me now in mind, and do make me strong only this once, O God, so that I may take one last payment from the Philistines for my two eyes.
Eka Samson noywak ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, para! Yaye Nyasaye, duogna teko mana dichiel kende mondo achulgo kuor kuom jo-Filistia-gi kuom toko wengena ariyo oko.”
29 Then Samson put his arms round the two middle pillars supporting the house, putting his weight on them, on one with his right hand and on the other with his left.
Eka Samson nomako sirni ariyo mane ni e chuny hekalu mane osiro hekalu. Kosirogi moro ka moro, ka lwedo korachwich osiro achiel to lwedo koracham e machielo,
30 And Samson said, Let death overtake me with the Philistines. And he put out all his strength, and the house came down on the chiefs and on all the people who were in it. So the dead whom he sent to destruction by his death were more than all those on whom he had sent destruction in his life.
Samson nowacho niya, “Mad iyie atho gi jo-Filistia-gi!” Eka nodhiro sirnigo gi tekone duto, kendo hekalu norwombore piny kuom jotelo kod ji duto mane ni e iye. Omiyo nonego ji mangʼeny sa ma notho moloyo kane ongima.
31 Then his brothers and his father's people came down and took him up and put his body to rest in the earth between Zorah and Eshtaol in the resting-place of Manoah his father. And he had been judge of Israel for twenty years.
Eka owetene kod joka wuon mare duto nodhi mondo okawe. Negikele ma gi hike e kind Zora gi Eshtaol e liend Manoa wuon mare. Notelo ne Israel kuom higni piero ariyo.
